Helping others
Helping others is important to us. Many of the world’s poorest people are African subsistence farmers – living on what they can grow from year to year. Inspired AG solutions has travelled to Africa many times and supports two amazing organisations who have inspired us! Both Foundations for Farming and Beyond Subsistence provide hope to subsistence farmers in Africa through professional training, support, encouragement and follow up. Please check out their websites and be inspired!
